You are so right on these points Topz...and looking at the design of the kit when you first started (The one that StillenZ84 has) and the kit you sent me you can see that the kit has evolved. Only by sharing our experiences and ideas will we be able to improve on your foundation, as we don't have a team of engineers. This was the main reason why I shared my experience. There's always room from improvement with everything. Your new idea of having the volute go from a 60* to a 2.75 pipe is great! Let me know if I will be able to purchase this part alone separately....

I want to absolutely thank you for making this kit available to the rest of us. You could've kept this custom kit to yourself, but you didn't. You made it a reality for some of us. Most especially those of us in remote areas like myself who do not have access to custom shops to get an A2A kit made/fabricated. If it wasn't for you I'd still be stuck on the basic Stillen kit.

Besides the minor challenges during the install, this kit is definitely a win and was well worth it all after the install was done. To feel a difference just at highway cruising was surreal for me. And you're right....I did have a smile from ear to ear after the intall was done....LOL.... Again Thank you.
